[Flashforth-devel] MPLAB config files

[<zd...@al...>]

For the second time in 3 months I've been loosing time looking for the 
non existent bugs, so I would like to prevent the others falling into a 
same hole. In my MPLAB (8.92), when I open the FF_UART project for PIC18 
it contains 11 'other' files:

Two are marked as "file not found":
install.txt
readme.txt
Everything works without them so they could be removed from the project.
Then, there are 7 different .cfg files for specific PIC models of 
families. It is not clear if you should remove the files that are not 
exactly for your PIC.

These 2 files are neccesary in every case:
pic18f-main.cfg
pic18fxxxx.cfg
The problem is, these 2 files are also included in .asm:

#include "p18f-main.cfg"
#include "p18fxxxx.cfg"

So they are processed twice, first as specified in project, second time 
from a folder with the .asm file (and there are a few good reasons why 
to keep them in a separate folders). Of course, second pass overrules 
the previous settings. As my .asm was in a different folder I was 
getting wrong baud rate calculation for 48 instead of 64 MHz.

I would suggest removing all #include from .asm and placing only 3 files 
on project include list:
pic18f-main.cfg, pic18fxxxx.cfg and readme.txt with short explanation 
about which .cfg files are neccessary.

Should 'clock =' go out of 'main.cfg' into .cfg specific for each PIC?

Any thoughts on that?
